[IOS/Android] Simple Share to email/Twitter/Facebook etc[V1.9.6]

Nevermind, I managed to exclude most of the unnecessary sharing options like print and copy to paste board.

Code: [Select]

UIActivityViewController *avc = [[UIActivityViewController alloc] initWithActivityItems:shareItems applicationActivities:nil];
       
        NSArray *excludeActivities = @[UIActivityTypePrint, UIActivityTypeCopyToPasteboard, UIActivityTypeAssignToContact, UIActivityTypeSaveToCameraRoll, UIActivityTypeAddToReadingList, UIActivityTypePostToFlickr, UIActivityTypePostToVimeo, UIActivityTypePostToTencentWeibo, UIActivityTypePostToWeibo];
       
        avc.excludedActivityTypes = excludeActivities;


I kept Air Drop because that actually works well and may be useful maybe?

UPDATE  version 1.1

- Share Screenshot (only on IOS) on android i get only black screenshots.

- Exclude unnecessary sharing options on IOS: (Thanks Max)

• PostToFlickr
• PostToVimeo
• PostToTencentWeibo
• PostToWeibo]
• CopyToPasteboard
• AssignToContact
• AddToReadingList

The image API has a block to get the screen as an image.  Have you looked at that?

Heya Rob, did you test the new update on android? On my side it gives an error, won't finish compiling:

Joraanpe, the extension seems to have been coded for the latest private releases. Make sure you have a recent Stencyl release.

You are right, it was that.
Thanks Justin

*Id just ask, is there anyway we could "know" if the user shared the message, or if it canceled it? Would be cool to know so we can add rewards after sharing.

*Would there be a way to "force" the user to use certain sharing method, for example twitter/facebook (without allowing them to choose) ?

*Also, dunno if im doing anything wrong but on my tests with android, it does share an image but its an image of a corner of the screen, not the full screen. Any idea why?

Thanks again and keep up the awesome job

* you can try to make a trigger event, if i program it in the extension it will no longer be a simple share extension.

*this extension use the activityviewcontroller on ios and the the simp;e share intent on Android, this meens IOS or Android looks for al install apps on device how can share a message/website or image. Therefore, it makes this  a simple share extension.  So for this extension not possible.

*thats strange, it works for me. this extension use the build in captureScreenshot of the IMAGE API on Android. Don't no why it works for you...

Hi Rob, thanks for your reply.
Could you clarify me a little more the idea?
I mean, how exactly can i know if the operation went successful?
It sounds like id have to deal with the internal code of the extension, am i wrong?

Hi Joraanpe,

Now that I think about it a little longer, a trigger event wont work, because there is no call back from ios/android code to haxe code. (sending back if true if share succeed).

I think it is a nice idea, if you can reward the player if he share your game. I will look into this.

Doesn't the Chartboost extension use call backs for if the ads fail to load or not? Couldn't you do the same thing?

wow, didn't see this one yet, just what I needed. thank you so much!
